When the debugger agent terminates the used port can be stuck in TIME_WAIT for some time depending on the OS and the state of the socket. With this change will allow the debug agent to start listening on a port still in TIME_WAIT. During development of both V8 and embedding applications this makes it much easier to restart an application using the debugger agent.
This also makes it possible to run the tests involving the debugger agent multiple times without failure.

During bind and listen socket errors are now handled. If the listen socket is occoupied the agent will retry its bind operation until success or shutdown.
Added orderly shutdown of the debugger agent both with and without a client connected.

This makes it possible to remote debuggers to just add commands to the queue without having to request a break as well. As soon as any JavaScript executes the debugger commands will be processed and the response send to the remote debugger.
Currently hide this behind a flag (--debugger-auto-break) as the current command line debugger in Chrome is not designed for this new behaviour, whereas the new Chrome developer tools will use it.

Changed the script break points to be able to handle both break points based on script names and script ids. When break points are set through a script id the position is relative to the script itself. This is different from the script break points set through script names where the line/coulmn offset is taken into account.
This has the side effect that function break points are not converted into script break points for named scripts.
Show the script id in the D8 shell debugger when listing all scripts using the 'scripts' command.

Add the ability to have the host embedding V8 receive a callback in the V8 thread while V8 is processing a debug callback. When V8 is processing a debug callback the thread where V8 is executing is sitting in a tight loop processing debug commands until the continue command has been executed. In some embedding situations it is beneficial to be able to call back into the embedding host from the thread where V8 is sitting. The might have functions which needs to be called to complement the JavaScript debugging.
Using the uint16_t array to pass a void* is a temporary hack.

Added a number of handle scopes to the debugger code to keep handles local to the function using them.
Fixed SetDebugEventListener to actually unregister when passed a NULL pointer. Previously this NULL pointer was wrapped in a Proxy.

Changed the name of Runtime_GetPrototype to Runtime_DebugGetPrototype to indicate that it is a debugger related function and changed its implementation to do the correct __proto__ lookup.

Added quoting of the name of the ref property using {"ref":1} instead of {ref:1}. The Chrome C++ JSON parser implementation requires quoted property names.
Changed the JSON format for non finite numbers. The previous formatting using NaN, Infinite and -Infinite caused the Chrome C++ JSON parser implementation to fail. Values "NaN", "Infinite" and "-Infinite" (incuding quotes) are now used.
Reverted changes to DebugLookupResultValue (runtime.cc) from http://codereview.chromium.org/17377. The change caused callback into Chrome with the current V8 context expected to have a DOM Window global object. This is not the case when the debugger context is the active context. This causes properties from interceptors and accessors to be reported as undefined in the debugger.

instead of normal JSObjects.
This ensures that __proto__ and accessors on the Object prototype do
not interfere with catch scopes. Also, it fixes the bug that catch
variables were not DontDelete (issue 74).
Next step is to create special lookup routines for context extension
objects and remove the special handling of context extension objects
from the general javascript object lookup routines.

Properties from interceptors are also reflected through PropertyMirror as the distinction did not make sense seen from a JavaScript debugging perspective. The isNative function on a PropertyMirror can be used to check whether a property is defined natively by the host (or V8).
Simplified the local property lookup in the debug runtime call to just call GetProperty as the property is known to be a local property.

Here is a description of the background and design of split window in Chrome and V8:
https://docs.google.com/a/google.com/Doc?id=chhjkpg_47fwddxbfr
This change list splits the window object into two parts: 1) an inner window object used as the global object of contexts; 2) an outer window object exposed to JavaScript and accessible by the name 'window'. Firefox did it awhile ago, here are some discussions: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Gecko:SplitWindow. One additional benefit of splitting window in Chrome is that accessing global variables don't need security checks anymore, it can improve applications that use many global variables.
V8 support of split window:
There are a small number of changes on V8 api to support split window:
Security context is removed from V8, so does related API functions;
A global object can be detached from its context and reused by a new context;
Access checks on an object template can be turned on/off by default;
An object can turn on its access checks later;
V8 has a new object type, ApiGlobalObject, which is the outer window object type. The existing JSGlobalObject becomes the inner window object type. Security checks are moved from JSGlobalObject to ApiGlobalObject. ApiGlobalObject is the one exposed to JavaScript, it is accessible through Context::Global(). ApiGlobalObject's prototype is set to JSGlobalObject so that property lookups are forwarded to JSGlobalObject. ApiGlobalObject forwards all other property access requests to JSGlobalObject, such as SetProperty, DeleteProperty, etc.
Security token is moved to a global context, and ApiGlobalObject has a reference to its global context. JSGlobalObject has a reference to its global context as well. When accessing properties on a global object in JavaScript, the domain security check is performed by comparing the security token of the lexical context (Top::global_context()) to the token of global object's context. The check is only needed when the receiver is a window object, such as 'window.document'. Accessing global variables, such as 'var foo = 3; foo' does not need checks because the receiver is the inner window object.
When an outer window is detached from its global context (when a frame navigates away from a page), it is completely detached from the inner window. A new context is created for the new page, and the outer global object is reused. At this point, the access check on the DOMWindow wrapper of the old context is turned on. The code in old context is still able to access DOMWindow properties, but it has to go through domain security checks.
It is debatable on how to implement the outer window object. Currently each property access function has to check if the receiver is ApiGlobalObject type. This approach might be error-prone that one may forget to check the receiver when adding new functions. It is unlikely a performance issue because accessing global variables are more common than 'window.foo' style coding.
I am still working on the ARM port, and I'd like to hear comments and suggestions on the best way to support it in V8.

upper case. Moved it into the RelocInfo class together with the associated
is_xxx functions. Renamed is_xxx to IsXxx in the process.
Removed the exit_js_frame mode as it was no longer used.
Patch Set 2 renames RELOC_MODE_COUNT to NUMBER_OF_MODES and fixes a couple of lint errors.

* Make old_data_space non-executable on OSs and hardware that support it.
* Rename old_space to old_pointer_space (can contain pointers, esp. to new space).
* Ensure that individual pages allocated for old_space are only executable when
they are for code objects.
* Ensure Space::Setup can cope with non-aligned memory.
* Make some methods on Spaces virtual. Make a way to iterate over all spaces.
* Replace executability flag with Executability enum in order to make intent at
call site clearer.
* Fix serialization/deserialization to allocate write barrier memory for large
arrays.

while V8 is running.
A debugger using the V8 message based interface now needs to control the
call to DebugBreak in order for the messages send to be processed. Commands can
still be send when V8 is not in a break, but they will not be processed until
there is a break. The response "request queued" when queuing up messages have
been removed. This gets rid of a non JSON message being used.
Modified the threaded debugger tests to call DebugBreak instead of relying
on it occouring automatically.
This change will not be committed until the outstanding Chrome change
http://chrome-reviews.prom.corp.google.com/2072 (which updates Chrome to control
the DebugBreak call) have been reviewed and committed.

In the shell sample don't print the result of executing a script, only
evaluating expressions.
Fixed issue when building samples on Windows using a shared V8
library. Added visibility option on Linux build which makes the
generated library 18% smaller.
Changed build system to accept multiple build modes in one build and
generate seperate objects, libraries and executables for each mode.
Removed deferred negation optimization (a * -b => -(a * b)) since this
visibly changes operand conversion order.
Improved parsing performance by introducing stack guard in preparsing.
Without a stack guard preparsing always bails out with stack overflow.
